As some of you know, I made the dumb mistake of running 20s at the track, I've just put on the 18s for the first time, and I can honestly say it's the first time since May I chirped in 2nd...

I think they look pretty tight to boot... so hopefully my 1/4 mile times will improve this weekend, weather permitting

I'm wondering cause I just saw 2 locally for 150, with enough tread to hit the track a few more times this year... lol

Now you can put the NOS in and fly beep beep.

I can't wait to see a video once you install the NOS.

When we going to see that?

got to get the shopping list in order, then start knocking things off the list ASAP. I know you're hoping to see it right away, but I'm guessing it may be a month before I get all parts etc.

Keep you posted on the NOS....

Hurrican Kyle has ruined my weekend plans I believe we are to get 50mm of rain or so... I just checked a site though, and there are over 5 more events I can attend this year, so I'm still pumped. I can get to one on Oct 4/5 and so on.

I hope to order the rest of the parts soon, so I'll keep everyone posted for sure

You might be the only one at the track. Maybe you can get a good discount.

Yes do it because the 350z 18's are 18x 8, and sport sedan G35 18's are 18 x 7.5

Plus the 350z rims look better

I think my sedan sport wheels are 18x8 and the coups are 18x8 front and 18x8.5 rear!

I could be wrong... But my tires are better on my rims! his are almost bald!

And the 18's are the ones off of a 2007 350z!

The G35 Coupe 18s are all 18x8, tires are staggered.

2007 350z 18s are even nicer looking... but they are staggered (as are tires) 18x8 and 18x8.5... and staggered tires may not work on the sedan (VDC).

I would love to see the 07 350z rims on the G35. I've been thinking about getting a set but not sure about the looks. They look badass on a Z tho.

definately 1+ on the G rims...

I like the 5 spoke with the deep inset for the bolts they would be yummy, dont forget to swapt the center caps unless you've rebadged

I will see him on Thursday and talk to him about it! I still like the way the 19's look! It would only be for the Track use!

The ones I looked at were far to worn for track use, I'm still on the hunt
